Managing your network printer securely using BRAdmin Professional (for Windows®)

To use the BRAdmin Professional utility securely, you need to follow the points below.
• 
We strongly recommend to use the latest version of the BRAdmin Professional utility or Web BRAdmin that are available as a download from http://solutions.brother.com If you use an older version of BRAdmin1 to manage your brother devices the user authentication will not be secure.
• 
If you want to avoid access to your printer from older versions of BRAdmin1, you need to disable the access from older versions of BRAdmin1 from the Advanced Setting of SNMP on the Configure Protocol page using Web Based Management (web browser). See How to configure the print server settings using Web Based Management (web browser).
• 
Disable the TELNET, FTP and TFTP protocols. Accessing the machine using these protocols is not secure. For how to configure the protocol settings, see How to configure the print server settings using Web Based Management (web browser).
• 
If you are managing a mixed group of older print servers2 and the new NC-6600h or NC-7400w print server with BRAdmin Professional, we recommend using a different password in each group.
